As an increasingly frequent user of this site and the rest of the network, can I please second that motion. I feel that this is probably the next DSEI/May Day event, given the bare facts. Bush is getting this kind of reception everywhere in America, every day, but we only have 3 days to cram all the demonstrations into.
Just check out IMC's in America, such as http://milwaukee.indymedia.org/ The articles mentioning POTUS are the ones in question, basically, Bush came and enjoyed a fundraising dinner. And then try a few other IMC's. And then start adding the numbers together...
Well, we've only got 3 days to do it, as I've said, so let's do it...
I hope the Black Bloc'ers will call meetings soon as well, just to get the foundations down, make sure every group which operates in the area does something. I just don't want it to be a "Stop the War" only event. I'd love to see every group, from environmentalists to human rights activists, who can possibly take issue with Bush, join and make a very united but diverse attempt to derail things. Perhaps an organisation like Disarm DSEI, with convergence centre etc should be set up.
